Mr. Jobee V. Navia, a Junior High School teacher from Jamindan National High School, was the resource speaker for the said webinar. He discussed the art of public speaking in the virtual world, which encourages students of CAPSU Burias to embrace the present situation and deal with changes in learning brought about by the pandemic.

“Public speaking is not limited to anything, it is open to all. It gives you an opportunity to be heard, deliver information, and relay a message, and anyone can do that and be a good speaker. " Mr. Navia said during his discussion.

            The program also aims to educate students on how to fulfill their current and future productivity demands, allowing them to anticipate and develop abilities that are most important to the institution and build relationships.

              Two student representatives from Capiz State University-Burias Campus participated in a two-day FOI Student Ambassadors Camp, which aims to develop a committed partnership with State Universities and Colleges (SUCs), and build a strong stakeholder relationship with students, last November 9–10, 2021 via Zoom.

            James Villasis, SSC President, and Arnold Dela Rosa Jr., CAPSUNIAN Echo Associate Editor, took part in the said event spearheaded by the Freedom of Information— Project Management Office (FOI-PMO) under the Presidential Communications Operations Office (PCOO), as part of its information, education, and communications campaign.

            "People should really exercise their freedom of information to monitor the performance of our government and to seek relevant data from sources that are reliable. We should be participative and investigative to avoid confusion and fake news, "said Villasis.

Highly calibrated resource speakers in the person of Atty. Joseph Llames, Attorney IV, Freedom of Information – ­­Project Management Office, Deniel Angelou G. Echevarria, Freedom of Information – Project Management Office Training Specialist III, and Lex Tanganco, Eskwelabs Data Analytics Programs Lead, took the lead in making the camp insightful.

           "It was honestly my first time participating in such a technical conversation, since it concerned certain legal rules. Nonetheless, the webinar was certainly valuable, and it taught me how to properly use my freedom of information, "Dela Rosa shared.     Villasis and  

         Dela Rosa were two of the participants from various state universities in the Visayas and Mindanao legs who were capacitated and trained by the FOI-PMO to become Student Ambassador and Deputy Student Ambassador, respectively, on effective dissemination and implementation of the program on their campus.
